List captured console logs. Filter by level, since, limit. Levels: log, info, warn, error.
AI agents call list_console_messages to retrieve information from React Native without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only reads and queries console message data without any side effects. It cannot modify, execute, delete, or create data. It is a pure read operation that retrieves previously captured logs for inspection and analysis purposes.
From the tool's definition Tool performs retrieval of captured console logs with filtering options (level, since, limit). No modification, deletion, or execution capabilities. The description explicitly states 'List' which indicates a query/retrieval operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List captured console logs. Filter by level, since, limit. Levels: log, info, warn, error. It is categorised as a Read tool in the React Native MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the React Native MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_console_messages: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches React Native. Nothing to install.
list_console_messages is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_console_messages rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_console_messages. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
list_console_messages is provided by the React Native MCP server (@ohah/react-native-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
